.AjaxRequest is not a function

[Linus]

Hello, my scenario is as follows:

1. MasterPage with two ContentPlaceHolders.
2. On the Page-level, each ContentPlaceHolder contains a RadAjaxPanel.
3. At any time, the panel called RadAjaxPanel2 might trigger an event which is caught by the Page. The Page wants to update RadAjaxPanel1.

The update is done through:

protected void OrderCreated(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    Orders.DataBindOrders();
    RadAjaxPanel2.ResponseScripts.Add(String.Format("$find('{0}').AjaxRequest();", RadAjaxPanel1.ClientID));
}

However, when the Page loads i find the following error in FireBug:

$find("ctl00_MainContent_RadAjaxPanel1").AjaxRequest is not a function
addFileInput(undefined)Telerik.Web.UI.We... (line 15611)
initialize()Telerik.Web.UI.We... (line 15461)
Sys$Component$endUpdate()ScriptResource.ax... (line 2587)
Sys$Component$create(function(), Object allowedFileExtensions=[".xls"], null, null, div#ctl00_MainContent_CalcGuide_FUDistributionFile.radupload)ScriptResource.ax... (line 2736)
Sys$_Application$add_init(function())

Note: FUDistributionFile is a RadUpload control located in a UserControl in RadAjaxPanel2.

My question is why can't I interact between the two panels?

Hello Linus,

Indeed, there is no AjaxRequest function but ajaxRequest instead. See the Client-Side API for details:

Hi, you are correct and now it's working, thanks!

However, your help pages are missleading, stating that it's supposed to be AjaxRequest...

You still did not correct your live demo pages. There is stil "AjaxRequest()" all over.

Hi Ales,

The help topics and online demos were updated accordingly and the letter casing matches the current API conventions (i.e. ajaxReqest() starts with small letter). Let us know if we are missing something.
